Very good idea,i feel like jayco thinks people have tiny hands,my bathroom and outdoor kitchen faucet are so short its easier to brush you teeth in the kitchen sink as to not make a big mess

It looks like the valve on the braided line has a push-on connect for the pex.
The only thing I can see that's wrong with it is that it's in your TT instead of mine.
Nice work!

Think we installed the exact same replacement faucet in our 2014 White Hawk before our first outing. Easy out and in swap except for my 66 year old back and short stubby fingers it was a breeze.

@RedHourse1 - Correct. I could not have gotten a better install at a dealer.
I have replaced all water fixtures and very happy we did.

We did the bathroom faucet replace, however with a single handle. Very much nicer that the plastic knobs! Did not do the braided lines and cutoffs, nice touch.

I just washed my trailer today and was eyeing up fall projects used my cell phone to sneak it into the small area under outdoor kitchen and the pex line has a threaded 90 on it,hopefully I can just screw a new faucet in

Nice mod! We did something similar in our White Hawk. This faucet has a water-activated blue LED that gently illuminates the sink bowl whenever you wash your hands. It's a nice feature for those middle-of-the-night trips to the bathroom.

The one beef I have with Jayco trailers is the small plastic sink that they install in their trailers. It just seems wrong that a 30k dollar trailer should end up with a 6 dollar plastic sink. Yes both the faucet and the sink seemed like they belonged to
bottom tiered product. I'd like to replace both. I do like the faucet that was replaced here.

X2 on the sink...does the job but really feels down-market. My bathroom sink counter is little better...significantly out of level on one side. If I was full-timing it would drive me batty!

Consideration is given to weight also, not just cost. I knew when buying a "ultralight" rig that it would not have stainless steel sinks.

I try to keep weight in mind when doing mods. But I like mods. I have famly that think I bought a Travel Trailer Kit.

Me too with mods...when I put in that faucet my brain immediately demanded a Smart Tile backsplash too...I'm hopeless.
